As you said, 240D does not have much of any collector interest and not much of resale value. It was sold in massive quantity, also. I believe 240D was before the age of galvanized body, so it is entirely possible three are many hidden rust spots.
As 240D is a diesel model, it is known to refuse to stop when engine is shut-off. (vacuum leak) Be sure to identify the emergency shut off valve under the hood before you start driving it....
You can buy many parts from Performance Products. (www.performanceproducts.com). Also, www.mercedesshop.com is a very popular forum + parts store (sponsor of the forum)
Mercedes-Benz stocks parts still sells parts you need. Shop around, as parts prices are very reasonable (despite the common belief) for some items. Be sure to check the dealer before placing order with on-line stores. You may be surprised...

'ninety 4 to 'ninety six Impala SS :D Yea, i assume it relies upon on your funds. in case you obtain 40 to eighty grand bypass with an import or a clean G8 or some thing. yet whilst that's no longer very achieveable, you ought to sell your Z28 for money and change around and get an SS or a Crown Vic or super previous Caprice Interceptor variety and characteristic some American muscle to enhance. :D
